TLDR: Historical accident, so you should use the one that looks more friendly to you. LRoutes are attached to Logix, which might be useful for complicated things. Routes (in some people¡¯s opinions) are simpler to understand and set up.
Historically, Routes existed first. They¡¯re a simple way of setting a bunch of turnouts when something simple, like a single sensor or turnout change, happened.
But they had very limited ability to do more complicated things that required the ability to make logical decisions. So Dave Duchamp created Logix. They could do everything that a Route could do and far more, but they were more complicated to set up.
So Pete Cressman created LRoutes. They¡¯re a different way of creating and editing Logix that looks more like the Route screens.
